Philadelphia -e. . , Sir My wish is to give you someac count of the people of these new States, 'but I am .-far from being qualified for the Burpose, havinsc as yet seen little more than the cities of New-York and Phila delphia. I have discovered but few na tional singularities among tlem. Their customs and manners are nearly the same with those f England, wich - they have ')eenlon use"d to copy. Fori previous to the Revolution, the Americans were, from their infancy, taught to look up to the English as patterns of perfection jn all things, 1 have observed, however, one culiar to this country. An account of it -will iserve up the remainder of this sheet, - I J -. v lY. . . I wr r i. caiaq o m it & A ?vi cni Wineri a young coujc aic auum li ter inta the matrimonial state, a never failing article in the marriage treaty i, that the lady shall have and enjoy the free and unmolested exercise of the rights-of invUt-ua&hin with all its ceremonials, privileges and appurtenances. A young woman would forego the most advanta geous connection, and even disappoint the warmest wish of her heart, rather than resign the invaluable right. You will wonder what the privilege of while-washing : t will endeavor to give you some idea of the ceremony, as I have seen;it performed. Vhere is no seas'on of the year in which the lady may not claim her privilege, if she pleases : but the latter end of May is most generally fixed upon for the purpose. The attentive husband may judge by certain- prognostics when the storm is nigh at hand. When the liidy is unuiually fretful, finds fault with the servants, is discontented. with the children, and com plains much of the filthiness of every thing aoOUl lier luefc aic signs h-h uugm not to be neglected ; yet they are not de cisive, as they sometimes come on and go . off again, without "producing any. further effects. But if, when the husband rises in the mornings he should observe in the yard, a wheel-barrow with a quantity of lime in it. or should see certain buckets with lime dissolved in water, there is then no time to be tost ; he immediately locks ud the apartment or closetwhere his pa pers or his private property are kept, and putting jLhe key in his pocket, betakes himself to flight : For a husband, howe ver beloved, becomes a perfect nuisance during this season oT female rage.-His authority " superseded, his commission . i .1 i..'..u' i . is-suspended, ana tne very.scuuien who cleans the brasses in the kitchen, becomes of more consideration and importance than him. He has no remedy for it, but to hdicate; and run from an evil wliich he can neither prevent nor mollify. . The husband gone, the ceremony be gins. The walls are in a few minutes stripped of their furniture ; paintings, prints and looking-glasses, lie in a hud dled heap about the floors ; the curtains are torn from their testers, the beds cram-' med into the windows ; chairs and tables, bedsteads and cradles, crowd the yard ; and thecal den fence bends beneath Ihe weight of carpets, blankets, cloth cloaks, old coats, ami ragged breeches. Here may be een the lumber of the kitchen, forming a dark and confused mass : for the fore ground of the picture, grid-irons and frying-pans, old rusty shovels and broken tongs, spits and pts, joinf-s(ools, and the fractur ed remain of rush -bottomed clmits. There, a closet has disgorged its -bowels ; cracked tumblers, broken wine glasses phials of forgot ten physic papers of nt known -.powder?., seeds and dried herb.-, ha nd fulls of old corks, top jf tea pois, and stoppers of departed dc liive your coi'cealing" cotinents, and ask 'I hese dreadfdi sumr.iotier: grace ! This ceremony completed, and the house tho'rouuhly evacuated;, the next operation is to mear the wallsnd ceilings of every room and closet with tiroshe dinned in a solution of lime, called whife-irosh ; pour DucKet m jwaier ovi r every nor. and scratch all he partitions and wainscots. with rough; brushes wet with soap-suds s.rid dipel in stone-cutters sand. The windows bt no weans escape the general tlelugj'. A servant ci-ambles out upn Ihe penj-house, at tf.e risk of her neck, and with' a mug in one hand, ai d a bucket within reach, she flashes away innumera ble galionsj of wat-erj against the glass panes, to the' great annoyance of the pas sengers in t-he street.' I have been told tliat-an action in law was once brought against one of those Water nymphs, by a i person who hail a new suit of clothes spoiled, bv this opera- linn Kilt, 'aflur lumr q rfrii ii ont If oo de'ermined by th wole Court, that the action would not lie, inasmuch as theDe fendant was in ibei exercise of a legal right, and pot answerable for the conse quences ; and so t lie poor gentleman was doubly non-suited ; for he lost not only his suit of clothes but his suit'at law. These smearings & scratchings. wash ings and dahings, bfcingdnly performed, the next ceremonial is to cleanse and re place the distracted furniture. You may have seen a house-raising or ship-launch, when all the hands virhin reach are col lected together : Recollect, if vou can, the hurrv, bustle, confusion and noise of such a scene, and yo6 will have so'ne idea of this cleansing match. Ihe misfortune is, that as the sole object is to make things clean, it matters notlhovv many useful, or valuable articles are; mutilated, or suffer death under the operation I A mahogany chair and carved frame undergo the same discipline ; they areito bemade clean at all events ; but their preservation is not worthy of attention, i For instance, a ifine large engravug is laul flat upon the floor smaller prints are pi;!ed upon it, and the superincumbent weight cracks the glasses ot4ne lower, tier ; Dut tins is or no con sequence. A valuable picture is placet nor abolish, it at least shortens thfV period of ft-male dominion. Tlie paper is d co rated with flowers, of various fancies, and made, so ornamental that the women have admitted the fashion, without per ceiving the design. There is also another alleviation of th.p husband's distress. HgeneraH v has the pnvi!er of a small room or closet, for his books and papers, the key of which he is allowed to keep. This is cousidf-r-ed as a privileged place, and stands like the lands of Goshen amid the plagues of Egypt. But then he must be extremely ca tit inns, and' ever on his guard : For shiiuld he inadvertantly go abroad, and leave the key in his door, t'ne houst-maid. whj is always fm the watch, for sui h an opportunity, immediately enters in tri umph with bucket, brooms and bruies : takjes possession of the premises, & forth -wifli puts all hUbnoksand papers to rights, to Ins i:tter confusion, ar.d.sometimes se- friends could hove wished.

An able arithme tician has niade an accurate calculation, founded on long experience, and has dis covered, .that the losses and destruction incident jo two white-washings, are equal to one removal, and three removals equal to one fife. The cleansing frolic ovar, matters be gin to assume their pristine appearance. The storm abates, and all would be well again ; but it is impossible that so great a convulsion, in so small a community, should nbt produce some farther effects. For two or three weeks after the opera tion, the'family are usually afflicted with sore thrdat, or sore eyes, occasioned by the caustic quality of ihe lime, tr who severe fold from the exhalations of wet floors orjdamp walls. I knetjv a gentleman, who was fond of accounting for every thing in a philoso phical wiay. He : considers this, vhich I have called a custom, as a real periodical disease,! peculiar to the climate. His train of reasoning is ingenious and whim sical ; but I am not at leisure to give- it in detail. The result was, that he found the distemper to be incurable ; but, after much study, he conceived he had disco vered a method to divert the- evil he could not subdue. For this purpose, he caused a small building, abouttwelve feet square, to be erected in his garden, and furnished some ordinary chairs and tables, and a few prints of the cheapest sort were hung against Jthe walls. His hope was, that when te white-washing frenzy seized the females of his family, they might re pair to jlhii apartment, and scrub anil scour, and smear to their hearts content j and so spend the violence of the disease in this out-post, while he enjoyed himself in quiet it head quarters. But the expe riment !iii not answer his expectation ; it was impossible it should, snipe a prin cipal part of the gratification consists, in the lady's having an uncontrolled right to torment her husband at least once a vear, and to urn him out of doors, and take the reins of government. in her own hands. 1 , - - There h imuch better contrivance than this of the 'philosopher ; which is, to co ver the wajls of the house with paper.- This is generally donet and though it can .v.-, " "I -'V- K"' ' " mon thrtot the room, a..: t carried in a rubbish-pan to the yarr!.' The tradesman had neglected to enter the credit in his book ; the tVfendant could find nothing to obviate the cftarge, and so judgment went ngninst him for the debt and costs. A fortnijjjit after the whole was settled and the tfconey paid, one of the children found tie receipt among the rubbish in the yard! 'J here is also another custom peculiar to the Oty of Philadelphia, and nearly allied to .'lie former. I mean that ol warmer -he navement belore the floors I first-took this the Police : but on further inquiry, find it to be a religious rite, preparatory to the Sabbath ; and is, I believe; the only religious rife in which the nuinrnus ectariel of this city per fectly agee. "The ceremony begins about sunset, md continues till about ten or eleven o'clock at night. It is very difli-. cult for i stranger to walk the streets on thsse evenings : he runs a continual risk of havini a bucket of dirty water thrown against his legs : but a Philadelphian born, is to much accustomed to the dan ger, that he avoids it with surprising dex terity. It is from this circumstance, that a Philadelphian maybe known any where by his g lit. The streets of New-York are paved with rough stones. The-e in deed are not washed, but . the dirt so thoroughly swept from before the doors, that the stones stand up sharp and prom inent, to the great inconvenience of those who are not accustomed to so rough a path.

But the women would not be induced, from any consideration, to resign their privilege. ISotwithstanding this, I can give you the strongest assurances that the women or, America make the most taithtul wives. ami the most attentive mothers in the 1 world.

These, observations relate to goods of low and middling quality ; but:is these goods form the bulk of the trade, and as c?ton sui table for them constitutes the bulk of the crop,' this superiority of staple is of the utmost importance. Ihe tiner qualities of cotton produced by the; country, are fit for the most delicate fabrics The s-econd great advantage consists in the posesion of unbounded water power, and an inexhaustible supply of stone coal and piue wood, joined to la borers nearly as cheap as in the hast In dies. Add to this that the South mav com mand all the science and skill of the country, and it must be allowed that her advar.tages are of no equivocal nature. Examining this highly important ques tion more minutely, it may be desirable to subdivide our inquiry under the three heads of expediency," capability of the country to enter the lists with her jcom petitors, and the rapacity of the blacks, as operatives, in relation, to machinery. Expediency. Is it expedient for the Southern States to establish cotton manu factories upon a large scale? The condition of these States is not as prosperous as it might and ought to be, corisidetinr their advantage's of soil and climate. Why is it not?
